  • Fixes #2895 (closed)
  • Fixes #2894 (closed) later
    • what about command line tools?
    • remove WEBPLOM variable
    • defer all this
    • CI updates?
  • Fixes #2899 (closed).
    • remove --webplom option from client
    • autodetects instead
    • client split the validate and login into two buttons.
    • "login" should do all auth so that we can (later) move get_spec() to auth'd only
  • ensure the SSL handling (popup dialogs etc) still work
    • but are hopefully a bit more maintainable
  • split API versions legacy vs new
  • logout button Issue #2905 (closed) later
